When on earth can we finally get MATE 1.14 officially?

For 16.04, MATE 1.14 is coming in a few weeks in a PPA, see here:

MATE 1.14 built against GTK2 will come to a PPA for 16.04

In answer to all the requests, Yes, MATE 1.14 will be coming to a PPA for Ubuntu MATE 16.04. ️ However, it will be a GTK2 build to ensure nothing in your LTS gets broken. I’m not going to have access to a computer for just over a week, but the build is done. We’ll do some final testing before releasing, shouldn’t be more than 2 weeks.
